The first message in #913154 suggests moving /etc/init.d/skeleton into
/usr/share/doc/initscripts/examples.  And /etc/init.d/skeleton is more
detailed than the example in init-d-scripts(5).  So it seems that the
best solution is for initscripts to add the examples/ directory, and
Policy to refer to that.  Please correct me if I'm wrong!
